The Google Finale

Ok, so I have to talk about all of Thursday, and then all of Friday. Who is ready for a short novel?

Thursday was a good day. A really good day. The best of days actually. We woke up like a regular day, except we knew we were going to be presenting our final projects. We got to Google, and ate our last breakfast at Alley, and then went to the classroom for final work on our projects.

We got a lot of it worked out, and then had a last lunch at The Lunchbox. It was amazing, and that may have been just because it was our last Google meal. =/ We tried out best to stay there in the grass, but in the end we had to go get our stuff, and head to where our presentations were going to be held. It was a pretty nice room.

We had an hour or so to get ready, so I did my best to pump people up by playing some really upbeat songs. =D Basshunter for the win! When it came time for our presentations Jessica randomly assigned us an order. I don't recall which group went first. I think we were 5th with matchzilla. Our presentation went really well. Even with our misakes I feel like we did it well enough for it to come across right. There were a lot of awesome ones. The Conversionator, CalCount, Google Trivia, Which CSSI-er are you most like, the Ice Cream shop, BlackChatJack, A recipe site, and a trading site.

Seeing what everyone did with it was really cool. After we presented my mentor had me go with him to the Google store, where he insisted on buying me a shirt (The YouTube Polo). I really like it.

From there we all walked to the Museum of Computer Science(?). It was really cool inside, and after getting seats Charles did a tour for us. =D When we got back upstairs we had a slideshow going, as well as food! There were Strawberries. =D When we got done eating we presented everyone with a certificate, that we'd been working on signing. We also all got Pictures and picture frames. Once we finished with that, we presented Charles with his autograph book, and then had cupcakes!

The cupcakes lead into us having a huge dance party. It was amazing! I love just getting to dance and be retarded! =D We spent a good amount of time dancing to Techno, and other good songs. After we danced for a long time Jessica called us all in to take huge group pictures. She then informed us of her Picassa album she's making so we can share pictures, and gave us all flashdrives. =D

Oh, also, we all got a 1,000 Scholarship from Google. I love them! We got back to the dorm, after many long goodbyes with Kat, Carolyn, and Charles. (Izzy convinced Charles to let him jump over him. =D) When we got back to the dorm we had a meeting in the lounge.

Everyone decided on 40 minutes to pack, and what not, before Ultimate and 7-Eleven. Ultimate was amazing, and I'm gonna miss it with them. We won both games, and I had some uber amazing catches! From there, we hung out in the lounge/the hall/my room. I almost put Kyle/Lori to sleep by playing with their hair, and then saved Kyle from Izzy and Kofi a few times. It was an amazing last night! We decided to go to bed when Izzy hallucinated, and thought he saw Sara Cain who had already gone to bed.

I still have to do Friday, but it's mainly sad stuff, so I'ma mix it with Saturday. =D

Adios!
